In this episode of the PACT Podcast, we explore the concept of mercy as described in the Beatitudes, specifically Matthew 5:7, which states, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy." We discuss how mercy is not merely a passive act of overlooking wrongdoing but involves a balance of justice and forgiveness. We reflect on the importance of recognizing the mercy we have received from God through Christ, which empowers us to extend mercy to others, even in the face of serious offenses. We emphasize that our actions should not be motivated by a desire to earn mercy but should stem from the understanding of the grace we have already been given. Ultimately, we are called to embody mercy in our relationships while allowing justice to be served through appropriate channels.
